Holding on for a narrow 4-3 win, the UK baseball team advances and lives for another day. Greg Dumbroski gets the win with a little help from his offense. Andrew Albers gets a FOUR-INNING save. Wow.
And the bullpen was sort-of saved, with only two pitchers used.
Of course, this win came just four hours after UK finished it’s first game of the regional, a 7-5 loss to Michigan.
Now UK can have some much needed rest and will face the loser of the Arizona/Michigan game later tonight at 2 p.m. tomorrow for another elimination game.
Put simply, the Cats will have their backs against the wall until they win the regional or lose.
Records Watch: UK is two wins away from breaking the single-season school record for wins, which is 44 set in 2006. The Cats also needs six more runs to break the school record of 500 scored runs in a season, also set in 2006.
